Morakniv has joined the qualities of their prized outdoor knives with modern kitchen needs. The result is a series of beautiful and timeless kitchen knives produced in Mora. In line with Morakniv's traditions, it is the user that has shaped the outcome. The bread knife has a 10" long blade made from Morakniv's Swedish cold-rolled stainless steel. It has a progressively curved edge which makes it easy to cut through bread. The wood handles are ergonomically designed to avoid your knuckles from hitting the chopping board. Part of the secret of Morakniv's knife manufacturing is the heat treatment. That is where Morakniv uses the steel's unique properties to increase the knife's durability and reduce the risk of corrosion. Working with Sandvik, they use Swedish cold-rolled stainless steel (hardened to HRC 56-58). It produces a knife with extreme strength and a long life as well as having high resistance to moisture. Stainless steel stays sharp much longer than carbon steel and is far less sensitive to rust. 13.5" overall. 9" stainless blade. Black wood handle with stainless ferrule and pommel.
